l^syldep ^hawl, 



Knit with Midnight Gcrmantown Zephyr and Talmar Brand '' Per- 
sis" or " Vida " Shetland Wool. 

This very pretty shawl is easily worked, being knit entirely in plain 
knitting. It is very comfortable as an opera wrap or for similar uses, 
and may be entirely of one color, or the two kinds of yarn may be of 
different shades, as Blue Germantown and Cream-white Shetland. 




For a shawl measuring i| 3'ards across the top, it requires 2 skeins of 
each yarn, and is knit on No. 8, 9 or 10 cedar-wood Knitting-needles, 
No. 9 being generally the best size. 



DIRECTIONS. 

Cast on 300 stitches of Germantown and knit across for the first row. 
To shape the shawl, decrease by knitting two together at the end of 
each row. 

2d to 9th row. Knit with Shetland. 

loth row. Knit with Germantown. To form the diamond-shaped 
pattern, when knitting the first and second stitches, pick up and knit 
the corresponding stitches of the last row of the Germantown with 
them. Knit 8 stitches, then pick up and knit the two corresponding 
stitches of the first row, and so on. 

nth Row. Knit with Germantown. Repeat from the second row, 
reversing the pattern formed in the tenth row by picking up the stitches 
between those picked up in the tenth row. 




The two sides are finished by tying in lengths of Shetland wool for 
a fringe. The top edge is finished by crocheting a narrow border of 
scallops of Shetland. For the first row work one double crochet into 
each of the cast on stitches, for the second row take one double crochet 
into the first stitch, pass over two of the double crochets of the first 
row and take five treble crochets into the next, and so on. A glance 
^t the accompanying illustrations will help to understand these directions. 



These vcrv pretty leggins are serviceable and warm. They may be 
knit in any color desired, from Midnight Zephyr or Beaver German- 
town, Talmar Scotch or Cashmere yarn, and reqnire about two skeins. 

Use No. i6 Needles. 

DIRECTIONS. 

These gaiters are knit in plain rows lengthwise of the leggin and then 
joined together. Knitting them in this way they 
keep their shape much better than when workcc 
round. Cast on 24 stitches for the first row. wliich 
will be at the back seam when finislied. This 
number must he increased to 70 stitches in 18 rows. 

The increase is made in this way : after knitting 
the second row cast on six more stitclves at the end. 
making tlie increase in this way at the end of cver\- 
second row. This will make the aiUled stitches 
on the lower end, the top being left straiglit, and 
will form the shape, for the leg. At the- end of the 
20th row cast on 30 more stitches, which will make 
the length of the leggin 100 stitches. Knit i^ 
rows, then twelve more rows mav be knit with 
white or some contrasting sliade to foDu the side 
stripe, to be ornamented witli an ornament:d coi< 
and tassels as seen in the cut. ^Vfter t!ie twelve 
rows of white, knit 15 more rows of the foundation 
C(»lor. then cast otT the first eight stitches of the r6th 
row, leaving the remainder of the stitches on the 
needle for the present. The gore at tlie lower t-d^^c is now made 
by fastening the yarn to the first of the cast-otV stitciies bv which the 
first stitch is made; at the end of every forward row cast on two extra 
stitches, and in every backward row catch in one of the jcast-ofl" 
stitches, which will all be taken up in i^ rows. In the 14th row cast 
on 14 stitciies instead of 2 to tbrm the part covering the instep ; knit 
the next 40 rows the wliole length of the leggin ; cast off twelve stitches 
in jthe 40 throw and' knit 16 stitches for the opposite gore ; this will 
leave 17 stitches on the iipedle. Decrease the gore b\' decix*asing one 
stitch at the end of eaclfrow and casting oil' the last stitch. Now col- 
lect the eigiit stitches and knit 40 rows the whole length for tiie inside 
of the leggin, cast off 30 stitches from the next row and reduce the re

maining 76 stitches to 24 in the next 19 rows and cast off. This 
finishes the foundation. To form holes for the lacings, the first row of 
stitches on either side of the white stripe may be taken up and three or 
four rows knit, the holes being formed in next to the last row b}' de- 
creasing and increasing after every fifth stitch. Now seam the leggin 
together at the back, then take up the stitches at the top and knit 18 
rows of two plain and two purl and cast oft". A small crochet scallop 
may be made around the top and bottom, and a small leather strap is 
sewed on on both sides to hold it on the foot. 

These directions are for the right leggin, the left should be knit oppo- 
site in order to bring the sti'ip on the outside. 



The very popular skull-cap introduced this season needs very few 
directions. It can be knit of Talmar Scotch Yarn or eight-fold Berlin 
Zephyr. It requires about a skein of the Scotch, or two or three laps 
of the zephyr. Crochet with No. 6 bone needle. 

DIRECTIONS. 

Make a chain of four and join ; work two single crochet into each 
one of the chain, taking up both threads at once. For the second 
row, take two single crochet in every stitch of the first row. For the 
third row, take two stitches in every third stitch, one each in the others. 
For the fourth row, take two stitches in every fourth, and si> on, widen- 
ing enough to keep the work nearly tlat till the size wanted is reached, 
then crochet without widening till the cap is finished. 



DIRECTIONS. 

Make a chain of 84 single chain stitches, which will make 12 gores. 
If a larger size is required make 7 more stitches. 

1st Row. Work one treble or long crochet in each of the first and 
second chains, 3 treble crochet in the 3d, i treble in each of the 4th 
and 5th. vSkip two of the chain to form the gore. If it is intended to 
finish with ribbon, make one single chain before taking up the first 
stitch for the second gore, continue after skipping the two stitches by 
working one treble in each of the next two stitches of the chain, three 
in the third, one each in the fourth and fifth, repeat to the end of the^ 
row. 

2d Row. Turn and work one treble crochet through the first and 
one through the second stitch of the first row, being particular to take 
the stitch through the back loop^ then take five treble crochet through 
the next stitch (these five stitches are worked into the center of the 
three zvidening stitches of the previous row) , then work one treble 
in each of the two following stitches, repeat to the end of the row ; 
continue with treble crochet stitches, making the rows as follows : 

3d Row. I each in first 3, 3 in the next, i each in next 3 ; repeat. 

4th Row. I each in first 3, 5 in the next, i each in next 3 ; repeat.

^MM'i ffiiiitiii lliE Mitels 

A very pretty Child's Afghan or Carriage Robe can be made very 
easily and quickly by the following directions. It is made from Mid- 
night Zephyr or Beaver Germantown, and I'equires about three skeins 
of each of two colors, or six skeins if made of one color. A very pretty 
combination is cream white and light blue, or blue white and pink or 
chen-y. f^ 

DIRECTIONS. 

Make with a No. 6 needle a chain of 150 stitches of the blue (sup- 
posing blue and white arc the colors selected), turn, throw the thread 
over and make a shell of six double crochet stitches into the fourth 
stitch of the chain, skip four and make another shell of six double cro- 
chet, and so on to the end of tlie row ; break otV the blue and join the 
white ; turn, make a chain of two, then make six double crochet into 
the loop between the shells of the first row ; catch down tight without 
putting thread over between tlie shells ; repeat and continue in this 
way, making the rows of blue and white to alternate. Make a deep 
shell border of tlie two colors, four rows on the sides and two on the 
top and bottom. 



liadY's FaHQY Wn-isfeeF. 

This elegant wrister is intended to cover the back of the hand down 
to the fingers. It can be knit of Tahnar brand, " Persis " or " Vida " 
Saxony, unless a heavier wrister is wanted, in which case Midnight Ger- 

back and purl two alternately till 30 rows are knit, then purl three 
rows, increasing one stitch each in 2d and 3d row\ This finishes the 
fancy top. 

For the plain part of the wrister knit at the back and purl alternately 
till five rows are knit, then reverse (knitting the stitch that was purled 
and purling the stitch that was knit) and knit five rows ; this makes two 
divisions of the pattern. The inci'ease for the thumb is now begun, 
this is done by making a stitch between the 4th and 5th stitches from 
the end of a pin ; this extra stitch is made after a purled stitch so as to 
bring two stitches knitted at the back^ beside each other. Knit out 
the four remaining stitches on the needle and four from the next needle, 
then increase or make another stitch for the other side of the gore. 
This increase is repeated in knitting every fresh division of five rows of 
the pattern, the second time the new stitch is made after a stitch taken 
at the back, that is between the i^th and 6th stitches from the end, this 
will bring the made stitch directly under the one in the last row, and 
will leave five more stitches on the needle to be knit or ten stitches be- 
tween the two increased stitches. Continue alternately these two 
methods of increasing, making the new stitches under each other which 
will increase the number of stitches between the sides of the gore by 
two in each division. After increasing twelve times the top of the gore 
is reached, when the widened part consists of 32 stitches; knit two more 
divisions without widening before commencing the thumb. 

The thumb is knit with the 32 stitches in the gore and 13 additional 



10 



stitches taken from the otlier needles and caught together in a ring, 
these 45 stitches of the thumb are taken on the three needles and knit 
as befoi'e ; the 13 gore stitches are taken oft' at the beginning and end of 
the rows of the next two divisions, then three more divisions or 15 rows 
more are to be knit with the 33 stitches, then three purl rows, then one 
whole row, and three more purl rows, the thumb is then cast oft'. 

To complete the hand the 13 gore stitches are again picked up and 
knit with the other stitches of the hand; six of these 13 gore stitches, 
three on each side, are, however, decreased while knitting the next 
division ; five more divisions are knit and then finished oft' like the 
thumb. The edging is crocheted and is composed of five chain and one 
single crochet back into the first chain and one single crochet, in every 
second cast-oft' stitch through the whole row ; a ribbon is run in and tied 
in a bow, as shown in the 'illustration. 



This very comfortable slipper is very nice for an invalid, or for any 
similar use. It is easily made, requiring four laps of eight-fold '' Berlin " 
Zephyr. 

DIRECTIONS. 



at the toe, make a chain of 15 stitches, woi'k back in single

stitches in the center 
stitch of chain. Work 
iS rows in this way, al- 
ways being particular to 
take up the back stitch 
and widening each time 
by working three stitches 
in the center. For the 
back, work back and 
forth on the first twelve stitches till the piece is long enough to go 
around the heel, then crochet to the other side ; or the opposite 




11 

twelve stitches may be crocheted out and the joining be done at the 
back. Crochet a row of scallops around the top ; run an elastic and 
finish with a bow of ribbon or pompons and plush balls as illustrated. 
The sole is finished by sewing on a lamb's wool sole ; sewing it on the 
wrong side and turning the shoe after it is done. The lamb's wool sole 
can be bought at any shoe store. 



The directions here given is for one stripe of a blanket which can be 
made anv size desired. It is crocheted in stripes of different colors, or 




the stripe described may be alternated with a stripe croclictcd in plain 



12 

tricot stitch. If made in this way the tricot stripe may be embroidered 
in some easy embroidery. The material used is Midnight Zephyr and 
a medium sized tricot needle. 

DIRECTIONS. 

Cast on a foundation of 19 stitches and crochet two rows in the wave 
stitch (this stitch is made as follows: the hook is to be inserted at the 
back into the perpendicular bars of each single row in Tunis-stitch in 
making the next joining row in going backwards), to which follow two 
plain Tunis rows with veiy raised round shapes. For these six chain 
are crotched in the ist row in going forward, first after five drawn off 
loops, then three times after every four of the same; these are left un- 
touched in the next single Tunis row, but are formed into long loops 
by the crowding together of the perpendicular bars. In going back- 
ward in the now following row the crochet is made as seen in the illus- 
tration. All the loops made as depicted are drawn off the hook by put- 
ting the wool once over this, the next perpendicular bar is then to be 
pierced with the hook and united with the thread loop drawn through 
to the front to the loop of the raised shape on the hook. The perpen- 
dicular bars are again to be collected till the same process as just illus- 
trated and described is repeated at the next Stitch-loop. This last row 
is formed by collecting the perpendicular bars on the left side, again into 
the first wave row. Curves each of one single worked into the first edge- 
stitch and five double into the third, ornament both sides of the stripe. 
In sewing the stripes together a crocheted stripe must be put first and 
last ; the ends of the blanket are finished with fringe bunches knotte J. into 
the foundation. A silk or cashmere lining may be made if it is intended 
for a carriag^e blanket. 



liadY's Mitifeen. 

This very handsome mitten is knit with Talmar brand " Persis" or 
" Vida " Snxonv \arn, if a soft fine mitten is wanted ; or it maybe made 
from Talmar Scotch or Talmar Spanish or from Cashmere yarn. These 



13 



two last mentioned yarns make very handsome mittens, and are 
very desirable, and very warm 
for cold winter weather. It re- 
quires 2 skeins of Saxony, and 
is knit on No. iS needles. 

DIRECTIONS. 

Cast on 64, 72 or 80 stitches, 
according to the size wanted, 
knit six rounds plain ; 7th round, 
knit two together, throw thread 
over, repeat to end of round ; 8th 
rountl, tlirow thread over, knit 
six plain, knit two together, re- 
peat ; 9th round, knit one, throw 
thread over, knit five, knit two 
together, repeat; loth round, 
knit two, throw thread over, 
knit four, knit two together, re- 
peat ; nth round, knit three, 
throw thread over, knit three, 
knit two together, repeat; 12th 
round, knit four, throw thread 
over, knit two, knit two to- 
gether, repeat ; 13th round, knit 
five, throw thread over, knit 
one, knit two together, repeat ; 
14th round, knit six, throw 
thread over, knit two together, 
repeat. Repeat from 8th to 14th 
rounds six times, which com- 
pletes the fancy top, the rest of 
the mitten is plain knitting. 
Take the first two and the last 
stitches of the last round for a 
basis for a thumb, purling one 
stitch each side of the three, and 
in the next round and in every 
4th round thereafter make two 
stitches for increase of width of thumb, at the same time continuing in 
every rovmd the two purled stripes which outline the same, until you 
Jiave 23 stitches in thun)b exclusive of the purled stripes. The increase 




14 

should be made the next stitch to the purled stripes. When you have 
33 stitches in thumb, knit three rounds plain. Now slip the 27 thumb 
stitches on a piece of twine, and tie securely, and with the remaining 
stitches continue the hand, knitting all plain and narrowing as thought 
best to shape of hand, and continue this until the hand has reached a 
sufficient length. To narrow and finish oft' the hand, commence at the 
end stitch of one of the needles. Knit seven, and narrow by knitting 
two together, repeat until the stitches on all the needles are reduced so 
as to be divisible by nine, next round knit plain, then knit seven, nar- 
row and repeat to the end of the round, knit seven rounds plain, then 
knit six, narrow, repeat and knit six rounds plain, then knit five, nar- 
i"ow, repeat and knit five rounds plain, then knit four, narrow, repeat 
and knit four rounds plain, now narrow once on each needle in every 
round until four stitches are left on each needle, then narrow twice on 
each needle and cast oft'. 

To finish the thumb, place the 23 stitches on the three needles and 
pick up three stitches from the base of the gore formed between the 
hand and thvunb, then knit around once and narrow once or twice in 
the next two or three rounds, knit to sufficient length and finish oft' by 
narrowing once on each needle till all the stitches are disposed of. 

The wrist of this mitten may be lined with satin, or a lining may be 
knit from knitting silk. This is done by picking up on three needles 
the loops formed by casting on in the beginning, and knitting as stitches 
with No. 500 silk in plain rounds until you have a tubular web of suf- 
ficient length to cover and form a lining to the fancy work in wrist. 
Cast oft' very loosely and finish the mitten by sewing in such a manner 
as will not interfere with its elasticity at the wrist. 

The lining may be of the same color as the mitten, or of a handsome 
contrasting shade. When two colors are used the effect is very pretty. 
The bow of satin ribbon sliould be of the same color as the lining.

manufacturers of the Florence Knittin"- Silk. 



This makes a light and very warm and pretty skirt for young chil- 
dren. It should be knit from Midnight Zephyr or Beaver Germantown, 



15 




of whif'n it requires three skeins of white and one-half a skein of 
scarlet. Of course these colors can be changed 
to suit the fancy of the knitter. 

DIRECTIONS. 

This skirt is knit with two knitting-needles, 
the border on No. lo and the plain part of 
the skirt on No. 14. This makes the skirt 
hang fuller at the bottom. 

Commence with the border. Cast on 200 
stitches of scarlet Germantown. 
First Row. — Knit plain. 
Second Row. — Change to the white Ger- 
mantown and purl. 

Third Rotv. — Knit plain. 
Fourth Row. — Knit one, make one, knit 
three together, knit two, make one. Repeat 
from the beginning of the row. 
The fifth, seventh and ninth 
rows are purled; the sixth, 
eighth and tenth are knit 
like the fourth row. 

The tentli row finishes one 
row of the scallops of the 
border ; to make the other 
rows of scallops repeat from 
the first to the tenth row three 
times more. 

The plain part of the skirt 
is very easily done, and is 
worked by purling three and 
knitting three alternately, ob- 
serving that the stitches that 
are purled in one row must 
be knitted when knitting back 
in the next row, and those 
that are knitted must be 
purled. When about half the length of the skirt has been knitted, 
change the needles and take the smaller ones (No. 14). 

When the proper length is reached, cast the stitches'oft' and sew' the 
sides together to within about three inches of the top, then sew the top 
to a linen band provided with buttonholes. 

The border of this skirt makes a very pretty edging when knit from 
:" Persis" or " Vida " Saxony yarn on ISTo 18 needles.

A very pretty Tidy or Lambrequin can be made with this pattern ; 
knit with crochet twine and finished with narrow ribbon drawn through 
the openings. 



This indispensable article of an infant's wardrobe is very easily made. 
It should be knit from Talmar brand " Persis" or '' Vida "' Shetland Wool 
in white. It requires from a skein and a half to two skeins, and should 
'^ ""be knit on No. lo bone knitting-needles. 

It is knit lengthwise, folded together and 
the sides sewn up, leaving space for the 
armholes. 

DIRECTIONS. 

Cast on lOO stitches. Knit two rows 
clear across, plain ; then purl two rows and 
knit two rows plain ; then knit forty 
stitches, and leave the remaining 60 stitches 
on the needles until you have knit 23 rows 
with the 40 stitches ; this will form the 
front ; leave these on the needle. jNow cast 
off (counting from the end of the first row 
of stitches) twenty stitches, by passing one 
stitch over the other; this will form Ihe shoulder. Now knit twenty- 
two rows with the remain! nj^ forty stitches, knitting two and purling 
two as before ; this v.ill form the back. 

Now knit another row, and at the end cast on twenty new stitches, 
and then knit the forty stitches left on the needle from the front. You 
will now have loo stitches again on your needle, which should be con- 
tinued five i"ows more and cist olT. The vest is then foldod together 
and sewn up, leavin'^ the armholes open. An edging is then crocheted 
round the neck and sleeves. 

The edging is worked as follows : 

First Row. — One single stitch into the edge of the knitting, two 
chain, pass over one stitch of knitting, take one single crochet into the 
next and so on. 

Second Roiv. — One double crocliet imder two chain of last row, 
three chain, one double under next two chain and so on. 

A ribbon is run throutjh the first row of the crochet around tlie neck.
